gear lever adjustment
just fitted my Migsel risers and footrests - thanks Michel.
With the standard gear level setting on my paralever R80GS, there was very little room to get my boot under the lever. However, some adjustment later and I've made the room.
Loosen the lock nuts on the gear linkage, then remove the lever from the frame and unscrew it from the linkage. Take up all of the thread on the gearbox side and tighten the lock nut. Thread on the lever side rose joint and take up as much of the available thread as possible, tighten the locknut and bolt the lever back onto the frame.
More than enough room for my 44 foot, fine when seated or standing.
If you have too much room, take off the lever, undo the lock nut and wind out some thread.
Would have been better and easier to adjust if the rod had been a turn buckle.
